Both parties are two wings of the same bird

As Nancy Pelosi famously said about the legislative process behind Obamacare: “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.” That’s the American lawmaking process today.

The representatives are sticking to the script, as is President Obama. Our congressmen have failed us. The president has failed us. They’ve yielded this nation to ungodly powers.

Being an elected representative in this republic was once a civil service. It was a duty to the ordinary American. Nowadays, representatives are loyal only to the special interests that put them into power.

The destruction taking place transcends us all. Yet, we the people can rise. We can redeem freedom. Freedom is an idea, and ideas are indestructible. Our freedom will remain stronger than the tyranny manifesting itself. America will rise from these dark times.

Many of Americans are becoming angry. They are seeking to break the bondage of the pseudo-tyranny taking place in our nation.

The government is taxing, regulating, surveilling and socializing the heck out of everything. It’s been that way since FDR. Both parties are full of tangled snakes; some are simply blue and some are red.

Our elected representatives are no longer civil servants or statesmen. The statesmen have gone extinct. Politicians, in both parties, and their special-interest ventriloquists are pursuing their own happiness while sacrificing the liberty of the American people and destroying the republic.

Most of our elected leaders are nothing but pawns. A select few seem to be standing up for compromise and bipartisan agreement, trying to lead. However, both sides are equally responsible for the political immaturity and scripted conflicts we’re seeing. Nothing is getting done in D.C. except bickering, stalemate and the spending of taxpayer money.

Freedom is deteriorating by the day in this country because of the actions of both Republicans and Democrats.

There is no “good” side in this situation. No one is winning; everybody is losing. The division is too fierce on the political stage. At this point, trusting politicians with our livelihoods is tantamount to trusting the Grim Reaper.

The Democrats and Republicans are two wings controlled by the same bird — not the Eagle of Liberty, but the Pterodactyl of Tyranny.

Nothing is getting done in D.C. except what the ventriloquists want the puppets to do. Our elected representatives, especially Barack Obama, are dividing us. George Soros paid well, as did the Koch brothers.

The NSA, CIA and Cyber Command are spying on Americans through XKeyScore, PRISM and the Patriot Act. Our nation is transitioning into a police-nanny-surveillance state. Grannies are having their homes invaded by SWAT teams. People with iPhones take food stamps. Some new iPhones are taking fingerprint scans for passwords. NSA analysts could be passing jokes about us as they snoop on our phone calls, emails, Facebook and other social technology.

Currency devaluation and inflation, further deficits along with rising national debt bordering on $17 trillion are damaging our economic liberty while the Big Brother-like surveillance is destroying our civil liberties.

Those in power, especially President Obama, seem willing to pursue their own personal short-lived happiness and political “winning” and their power at the expense of the Republic. Congress does not write legislation nor do they read it.

The Affordable Care Act — Obamacare — was written by the lawyers of health insurance companies. The law is a disaster. That is obvious with the government website’s failure, the rise in premiums for some folks, doctors railing against the legislation, the canceling of health insurance of over 3 million Americans, and the coerced taxation that will take place for the countless people who don’t have a private plan and cannot or will not buy into their respective state exchange program.

Obamacare is coercing Americans to pay for something they may not need or do not want. No one, especially government, can force you to buy anything. That goes against the free market. The individual is the free market. The federal government cannot run the health care system. That is socialism at its finest.
Most of the bills coming out of Congress are wrecking balls that are tearing down the foundations of freedom, independence, privacy and ambition this nation was founded on. The regulations add up to over 2,000 pages on most legislation, and President Obama and our negligent representatives are shoving tyranny down our throats.
